What a great experience had at this small little hole in the wall fusion sushi restaurant! I am a huge fan of non-chain, mom n pop hole in the wall restaurants. They are existing to make their lives better by making your life better! They are a better experience, all around, hands down, without a doubt! This one is no different! Initially, I love the immediate change of environment when walking off the street into this establishment. The very courteous hostess sat our maximum sized party within a couple minutes. We were on a time crunch, so that mattered. The food was also brought very quickly! Our waitress was very complimentary and competent with her knowledge of the menu items and what the popular dishes are. We had quite the array of menu items as well! She was very respectful and pleasant in her presentation to us and attentive to all of our needs. Which isn't easy with larger parties. The food was absolutely incredible! All of it very delicious, prepared perfectly and rather quickly! I have not a bad thing to say about this small but powerful fusion sushi experience! read more

We stopped there a a bite. Very slow service getting your food. So have plenty of time as they prepare freshly made meals. Atmosphere nice and clean area. Look for any specials they have and enjoy. read more

Stopped in for breakfast while exploring downtown. I ordered a latte and the Anaheim scrambled. The coffee was ok but not strong at all. It was like drinking a diluted latte which was disappointing. The scrambler was good and very filling. I'd try another place for breakfast as there were many in the area and this was just ok. read more

We came on a weekend and were serviced pretty quickly for it being a smaller and busy cafe. My boyfriend got pancakes, eggs, both which were pretty basic in my opinion. I got the chicken sausage wrap and a cinnamon roll. I really enjoyed the chicken sausage wrap and the tortilla it was wrapped in. I just wish the filling was more mixed together. The cinnamon roll was really good, however, the frosting is VERY sweet. Maybe if it was heated up more I wouldnt notice, but the cinnamon filling was very good and flavorful. We both also got the cold brew coffee, which was also basic, but decent. read more

So we ordered 2 scrambles and saw the girl actually put in the order, but our food never came because the menu switched and our order got lost in the system. We got the buzzer and coffee, but the food order is missing. I understand it's not the employees fault, but it was frustrating to wait for 20 mins for a nonexistent order. Plus we were kinda in a hurry because our train leaves at 12. We were given a refund though, just suck it was a waste of time. read more

First time here was really awesome. Steve was very kind. I'll come back again so many options and clean inside.

First result on GrubHub on a search for soup. Ordered soup and a bunch more for an $80 order. Order arrived with no soup and other missing items as well. Is this supposed to be a grilled cheese sandwich? read more

During our trip to San Diego, we decided to grab breakfast here before heading out to Balboa Park. The food was ok, and it seems like a local favorite. One side of the shop was packed as the other half was closed off for maintenance. A worker was fixing a ceiling tile in that area. Nothing fancy but gets the job done if you want a quick bite. read more

Food is cold and tastes like paper. The knowledge of personnel varies and depends on who is working that day. Very bleak breakfast place.

Never a disappointment. It's just hard to find parking especially with Horton Plaza being closed these days. Food and drink are always on point and reasonably priced. Be sure to sign up for their rewards program. The birthday treat is always worth the visit. read more

San Diego local, here. I pass by this franchise often and decided to give it a try. The menu items are expensive for what you get. The customer service wasn't memorable. The espresso machine was broken. I got a cold brew instead. It tasted weak, like milk and vanilla syrup. I also ordered a Cafe-sized pasta. Upon first bite, I thought that it was quite bland. It needed more peppers or seasoning. Then, I realized that the sauce was quite oily; I thought that the reason this specific pasta was higher in calories than the rest was for nutrients or protein. No, just oil. The pasta came with garlic bread on sourdough, which I thought was nice, but it was not memorable either. By the end of eating this pasta, I noticed how salty it was. There was more flavor needed, but the corporate chefs could learn a lesson that salt doesn't equate to flavor. For a small coffee and a side of disappointing pasta, my meal wasn't worth $18. There's a large lobby inside and a large outside patio, all empty. I can see why. And, I can see why I avoided it until today. I don't love supporting chain restaurants in San Diego, especially downtown, since there are so many other amazing food options. Don't make the same mistake that I did by getting lunch here today. Just don't go. read more

Food was great, only thing wrong was that their drink machine wasn't working, cashier was friendly

I came here quite a bit during jury duty. They opened on time and food was ok. There is a new cashier with a badge named Hero that was the sweetest, but that's the only positive I can give for service as I felt the manager was not hospitable. I tried the scramble, oatmeal, pancakes, and cookies. Also got Mini chocolate chip cookies to go which were stale. Pancakes were good, so I'd recommend those if you go. Coffee was barely fine, borderline not good. read more

Food and service was fantastic! So great we came back the next day. Our food was delicious and the staff was friendly. Fast service that accommodated our lunch hour. read more

There was a gentleman at the counter. I assumed he was taking orders. I said good morning. He looked at me and "oh they'll take your order over there" pointing to a cash register with no one there. The worst greeting and customer service ever. No "hello" or "we'll be right with you". Just a look like I said the dumbest thing in the world to him. Quite a shame. read more

Food was good. Coffee was not worth a cafe experience. The cold brew was watered down and already made in a jug. After working in a coffee shop and making my own I knew this cold brew was not made properly. I wish they would have just had concentrate on the side and made the cold brew fresh that way to make sure measurements were appropriate. The atmosphere was very chill. Service was meh. Kept getting looked at while waiting to order before someone decided to help me. It took approx 10 minutes before getting service from one of the four women working in the front. read more

I went to Corner Bakery for the first time and ordered the Berry Almond Overnight Oats. Large serving of oats, with a generous serving of fresh fruit and regular serving of almonds. The dining room is large and CLEAN, something you don't see downtown San Diego very often. The service was quick and hassle free. I would come back to try a different breakfast item. read more

The cafe is on my walking path to the office so I decided to drop in. I was impressed with how quickly my order became ready. The food quality was great and it was warm just the way I like it. There's a nice sofa fountain. Yeah I know I shouldn't be drinking soda but that's for another day. I do recommend that you give it a try if you're in the area and need a nice little quiet place for lunch. They serve breakfast too. read more

They get 2 stars because the food was hot, the circumstances causing the low stars is as follows. They left the paper on the cheese absolutely a turn off and when I called to inform them they didn't offer any sort of fix. They said they will let the cooks know to remove the paper used to separate the pre sliced cheese for the egg and bacon croissant. The interior of the restaurant look to be in reasonably cleanly order. For me the experience was lack luster at best and down right disappointing over all. read more

Corner Bakery Cafe - Here what to expect for 11 dollar breakfast sandwich. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Food was barely edible. Ordered tomato soup it was watered down ketchup. The grilled cheese was barely edible. Ordered to go and if I had not been looking would not have known the order was ready. There were very few customers and now I know why. Zero stars from me. To post this I had to give a star. read more

Good place for a quick stop. We were in the area for jury duty. We wanted something hand held, quick and handy while walking. We absolutely love the coffee , no picture, but it was a mochaTruffle. It was absolutely fantastic and we finished it pretty quickly. The wrap and panini were not put of this world, bit it was edible. The eggs tasted like the ones from the cartons. We would probably stop in again for the coffee if we ate in the area. read more

I ordered a half dozen muffins on the Corner Bakery on-line ordering system. The site gave me a time a half hour after I ordered. After a half hour I walked in to get my order and they indicated they didn't have an order. I showed him my order on my phone and then he told me they didn't have any muffins. Two things about that was weird, 1) why let me put in the order if they don't have any muffins, and 2) why make me wait a half hour if you aren't even going to make any muffins for an order that came in. When I asked for a refund, he said it would take 2-3 days. I asked for a receipt for the refund which he was able to give me despite claiming to not have the order. Anyway, I would not recommend putting in an order to pick up food at this site. They are not reliable. read more

Great quality of food, ambience, and atmosphere was a plus. However, there were two things that could have been better. 1) The men's restroom had an out of order sign posted on the door. When asked, if I could use the woman restroom the server said no! Whoa... What... Wait.., However, she did inform me that the men's urinal was available but the men's toilet was out of order. She could have presented this in a better way as I was contemplating on leaving. A better way of handling the situation would have been, yes, you can use the men's restroom, however, the toilet is out of order, but the urinal available. 2) Parking is really bad as it was difficult to find any parking at street level. Based upon these two items, is why I gave the dining experience a four star rating. read more

This is what I paid $12 for. Like were they in a hurry ? Eggs look sloppy presentation is a 3/5 was really looking forward to this breakfast bowl but now I have to fix it at home or better yet make my own eggs now. Ugh. So disappointed read more

Very good location, comfortable, friendly staff. Was in the area and stopped in for a quick meal. This struck as as a Panera-style place, and the menu seemed similar. I had a VERY good salad - the Berry Pecan Salad - because Blue Cheese is one of the only cheese that I don't care for, I asked if they would swap out the cheese and they were accommodating (I choose mozzarella, but they had a number of options). It was my main meal, so I ordered the larger size, and the portion was perfect. The dressing was really good, but next time I probably won't use it all because the salad had great flavor with the berries and candied pecans. The hubs had a sandwich and I'm drawing a blank about what it was - I want to say BBLT? Whatever he ordered, he enjoyed. I would have given them 4 stars (because I do think that compared to similar restaurant types they deserve 4 stars), but we stood at the counter for a number of minutes before someone came to help us. I know people are busy and appreciate that, but it's super easy to look up at us and acknowledge us simply by "someone will be with you in a moment". We do plan on going again, because we both really enjoyed our meals. Thanks for reading my review! read more

Love Corner Bakery, the staff is always so nice and helpful. I usually place my orders online for pick up and sometimes the baked goods are unavailable (between what I placed on-line and what is currently available in store). But they always provide me with options to replace what is missing. We've never really had anything here that we have not liked. My son's favorite are the soups and the bacon/tomato mac and cheese and my daughters is the chopped salad. The amount of food you get for the price is great. The containers are always packed and the food is always fresh and tasty. Their baked goods are good and they have an excellent black current iced tea. Super refreshing! Most locations have indoor and outdoor seating and there is plenty of it. Service is most always great, only one time we had an issue and it was resolved right away which was great. Wish there was a Corner Bakery closer but it is worth the drive for us! read more

I've been to a CBC in other states. I think it's my fourth one. As I told my wife, they are batting a thousand. This place simply delivers. The food is really good. At this location the customer service is doing right. I don't recall the young lady's name, she greeted us with a welcoming smile and took our order timely. Cool decor, furnishings are in alignment with the theme of the store. Pick anything from the menu. You really can't go wrong. read more

3.5 A trusty location that were able to rely on for breakfast during a convention. We were served pretty quickly and the food was good. Bonus for gluten free bread options meaning I could get toast. Yay! Their salads are also very good. I will say tho their serving sizes do fluctuate during the span of the show. Any negative issues were how sticky the floors were. Gross. Also you have to use a code to go to the bathroom. I get why but super annoying. read more

I had jury duty and wanted a quick healthy bite at a low cost. CB delivered. I was greeted with a smile. The restaurant was extremely clean, neat, and all staff wore facial coverings. After each guest there was a concerted effort to disinfectant the area without offending the customer. I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato basil soup. The food taste is average. You'll eat the meal but it's not memorable. You don't think about what you paid but know you can get it better elsewhere. The lemonade is still the best. I didn't try a pastry but was tempted. read more

This review is solely for the extraordinary service provided by the team, specifically Kashon (I'm sure I'm not spelling it correctly and/or worse - it's not the right name at all.) I just want to give him major kudos for being the most kind, helpful, and cooperative person. I hope he gets the props he deserves and so much more. Thank you for who you are and for your heart of gold, Kashon. I appreciate you beyond measure. read more

Imagine wanting to start a breakfast restaurant with a diverse menu. You find a location and you hire staff. Now you just need some ingredients... For some reason, you decide the best place to source ingredients is the most cheap frozen food items located at your local grocery store. On top of that you decide to combine them with little to no seasoning. This is the experience of eating at the Corner Bakery. read more

It sounded quaint but I got Cardboard breakfast food. I would not go back. You can do better

Love this place! I had a breakfast here with friends. All of them were satisfied their food. It was really healthy food. Even sandwich was nonfat. We also tasted bowl with scramble, omelette with toasts and pancakes a week later we came back there to order pancakes again Nice black coffee. You can refill it unlimited. Thanks guys. read more

Well, I don't have much to say as I walked in got in line waited my turn as the employee finished up with a customer. As it's my turn (my first time visitor) another lady walked in straight up to the right side of the counter(I was on the left where it says order here) told the girl she was ready to order, girl said ok I'll be right with you, as she was getting the 1st guests order, she looked at me gave me a oops kinda look yet said nothing to me since the moment I walked in. So I in frustration just said " well ok then, Starbucks it is" I turned around, walked across the street to Starbucks (fyi it's an online pick up location BUT they took care of me & the others that walked in after me!!). Food looked good as in muffins and the ambiance looked good also but unfortunately I'll never know how good. read more

Stopped by, ordered the Anaheim Panini (egg, tomato, bacon) relatively small portion for the price (~$10). The pastries & bagel with spread also range from $5-8 but relatively small portions. Positives was the big space, friendly cashier and ability to plug-in if you need to work (however the wifi didn't work, totally spotty and slow). Last resort option, in the future. Friendly staff over understaffed because many tables were waiting to be bussed, while the line at register was getting longer and longer. read more
